Progress:
J.T. and I have learned a lot thus far with this project. We have learned that the process may be more difficult that we had expected but we still believe we have the drive and the resources needed to tackle this challenge. Currently, we have a book that outlines nearly every step in the ski building process. This book has come in handy when researching about which materials will work best. J.T. and I are expecting to have the materials in by the end of spring break. Most of the materials can be picked up at our local hardware store except for ski specific materials such as the base. We also have found a website that has helped us through each step of the process.

This is a great idea, Braden. This project I'm sure will teach you a lot about how skis are made and will teach you which materials work best for which purposes. It was very smart of you to find books and websites that will help you focus your attention more and will help you know how to best complete your goal.
